1 1 The heart is getting shit-faced. Can t hold the gaze of tetchy waitresses, bartenders. Cleans its pocket knife. Sharpens fork tines. Just because. Tests irony. Stiff upper lip and downing another round. The heart is doing a bit of pickling, a bit of self-preservation. Has never been so wrought. Likes it straight-up, no chaser.

2 2 The heart curses brownnosers and hacks. Writing rhyming verse. Crayoning a do not disturb sign in loopy cursive. Dotting the i with a tiny balloon you-know-what. The heart sits at sidewalk cafes, tries to check-out passersby. Can t be bullied into anything. Marches to the beat of self-sufficient. Solo. 103

3 3 Wants to blow. Wants to get off. Shoots down every tin image in its likeness, every plastic facsimile, every tissue paper cut-out. Turning tricks. Picking scabs. The heart is back on crack. It s schlepping. It s tonguing scissors. 104

4 4 The heart will stay on the line for the next operator. Will await further instruction. Needs a convenient paradigm shift. Wants to take responsibility for its actions. The heart sings on caffeine. Thinks empowerment. 105

5 5 The heart s skinny dipping. It s gone fishing. Glib. Glee. Its dancing shoes are on. It ll never be a wallflower. It s kicking up dust. Wants to get this party started. The heart blesses all that populate its corners. It s on a camp-out. It s sleeping under the stars. The heart has never surfaced more queer. 106

6 6 The heart has more than one day a year to ride, nary a shirtsleeve in sight. Has a toolbox and a bed to put its boots under. Wants to nelly. Wants to bite. Enjoys watching sparks fly. Banged too many nails. A regular do-it-yourself pipe fitter, an ironworker. Gained five pounds, lost half an inch. Has done time. 107

7 7 It needs a wet cloth, the cool side of the pillow. Prone to disease. Constricted, clogged up. The heart is solipsistic. Writes its own epitaphs, daily. Consumed with its own pain. Believes it s some kind of martyr. Soldiers on, whinging. It s full of hot air. It won t blow out. The heart a lit wick in the body s hurricane lamp. A stubborn fire. 108

8 8 The heart s in the back alley licking tin cans. Chasing cars. Eating garbage. It s feral. Yowling and yipping. Nipping heels. Scratching an itch that just won t go away. Roaming at dusk. Chasing tail. Looks through windowpanes and only sees itself. The heart s on the prowl. 109

9 9 The heart, bravado. The heart, pluck. Going through the motions, day-to-day. Strives for sheer pleasure in practicing scales! Reaching for that high C. Tremolo and honk. Sforzando. So very far from deft. So far from subtle. A fist crammed into a brass bell. 110

10 10 The heart as bait car. There for the taking. No, the heart in a stolen van manoeuvring a trunk road. Thieving. It has taken side roads for so long. Avoiding gridlock. Bottlenecks. The fast lane. Vehicle: a means of expression. The heart, inasmuch. The heart, etcetera. The heart, nevertheless. Thanks to Leaf Press for granting us permission to reprint "" from Surge Narrows (2013).
